BRENDAN RODGERS has revealed he won’t be splashing out on a big-name signing to bolster Celtic’s Europa League campaign.

Brendan Rodgers doesn't intend to make any marquee signings in the January window

The Hoops squeezed into Monday’s last-32 draw in Nyon by finishing third in their Champions League section.

Celtic will now come up against one of the 12 Europa League group winners or one of the four top Champions League drop-outs.

As a non-seeded team, the likes of Arsenal, Lazio, Zenit St Petersburg, AC Milan, CSKA Moscow or Atletico Madrid could lie in wait.

Manager Rodgers has vowed to make sure his team is better prepared for the first knockout clash in February even if his dealing during next month’s transfer window will be prudent rather than spectacular.

He said: “We will always rely on the collective, we will always rely on the team. There won’t be one player at this level who is a massive stand-out. Our star is the team. That is the way it will always be.
